# What can you do with Claude and Publer?

Once connected, you can interact with your Publer workspaces.

For example, you can ask Claude to:

* Create a draft post.
* Schedule a post for one or multiple social accounts.
* Check your scheduled posts.
* View your connected social accounts and analytics.
* Help you create content before scheduling it.
* Manage supported Publer content directly from Claude etc.

For example:

`Create a LinkedIn post about our latest product update and save it as a draft in Publer.`

Or:

`Schedule this Instagram post for tomorrow at 10 AM.`

Claude will use Publer's MCP tools to carry out the request based on the access available to your account.

# Keep in mind

* Claude can only perform actions supported by Publer's MCP.
* The same social network requirements and limitations that apply when using Publer directly also apply when using Claude.
* Keep your Publer API key secure.
* Always review the account, content, and scheduling details before confirming important publishing actions.
* You can manage or revoke your API keys at any time from **Settings > API & Webhooks**.
